Afternoon Nap
My head bobs. I’m so sleepy.
Like a baby, or an old woman
I need my afternoon nap.
As I read, my eyes bang shut
And I wake when my head bobs
Again.
I’m drooling. How revolting.
Brain is swimming in sludge
And I can’t stay awake.
My grandkids think it’s funny
When they see me
Like this. That’s okay.
One day
It will be them.
They.
And their grandkids
will watch and giggle.
I’m glad I’m good
For something 🙂
